      @@jleron22 He's had quite a bit of big awards, but really the takeaway should be that there can't be enough accolades given to this man. He's that important. He could be given every honor in music and the humanities and we'd need to make up more just for him.

      And so the story goes. He was original in his music and entertainment. But I agree we dont pay omege to these ones while they are here. He had to fight to be titled for his gifted talent and the struggle was very well worth it. He had fame and fortune but the powers that be did not want him to be recognized. He made his mark by opening doors for other people today. Not just in the entertainment world but in all areas of civil and human rights. He went back to his roots and we better recognize who and what this man meant to this planet.
      Love you Mr. Richatd!

    Little is a very nice man. I will never forget when my bestie and I were in Hollywood many years back and saw a long stretch limo and recognized him turns out we were staying in the same hotel and he invited us to his room for fruit and kept saying his feet were bothering him. He was performing that night and prayed for us, blessed us and then he gave us gifts, took photos with us and autographed a couple books for us. We were 2 silly girls in our early 20's from Chicago and he treated us like princesses and talked to us like we were his daughters. We were so blessed to have experienced this!

      Little Richard left that life behind him, and became a new person. He left the music industry went back to school, graduated from an HBCU , became an ordained minister, and spoke about the ills of the world and love. Little Richard lived a different life because his old life he realized it was idolatry. We have to accept people for the changes they made it their lives, if he didn't feel comfortable with that past, we have to accept it.

I do care that he was a great musician who contributed immensely to the history of rock n roll, even though he wants in his latter years to leave that behind him...and you know what, he's entitled to that too. At least he's still with us. And as far as his faith goes, well if that is what sustains him and gives him solace, good for him.

      Richard always said that Chuck Berry was his absolute favorite performer. And he and James Brown competed and pushed each other to greatness in Georgia before they both hit big in the 50s. It's remarkable that Little Richard was able to cut loose in the South, during the darkest days of Jim Crow, and actually got away with it because alot of the Whites thought he was GAY! They figured he wouldn't be after the white girls, so he was ok!

You're missing the whole thing Elvis Presley was Versa ties he can sing anything imbalance Rock and Roll country gospel rhythm and blues you name it he can sing it. And today Elvis Presley was a well-known Entertainer he didn't shut down at a piano and saying. He danced around he moved around and he interacted with his fans.
      And Elvis gave over 200 Cars way to his friends family and fans. He has gave jewelry to his fans. He's did over a thousand shows. Roughly. 150 shows a year..

      Scripture says “To be ABSENT from the body( soul) is to BE PRESENT ( soul) WITH THE LORD.” Apostle Paul inspired by the Spirit writes man or woman is “whole” body,soul and spirit. I Thess.5:23 ; Hebrews 4:12 says there is a difference or ‘division’ between soul and spirit. “Soul sleep” is a false doctrine.

      With a up tempo. 1951 Elvis came in 1955, four years later. Jimmy Hendrix
      His bass player, the stones would warm for him. He was such a genius. & so very funny! I like them both. Let's be real about
      Dates. Richard had James brown, look @ how many bands this gentle soul has

      Michelle Williams Little Richard ain't changed shit and don't get me wrong I love him but this man has been in the "church" all his life and has been fucking men most of his life and Jesus ain't stop shit and if you believe these people when they say they've been delivered you are stupid because it ain't true Lil Richard has been battling with who he truly is forever and ain't no fake god going to change that

      Michelle Williams Please don't dignify that person with anymore of your answers if they simply choose not to believe. If someone doesn't believe could it be that they are already lost? And the bible teaches not to argue with fools least you become what they are. Even the atheist become believer's after they die. By then it's too late. It's sad to say, not everyone is going to be saved anyway no matter how much you talk.

      Prince William, the same Jesus Christ you're mocking and cursing, you will one day face as your final judge. It's not too late, you can still be forgiven. He died on the cross for your sins and rose again from the dead all because He loves us that much and wants all to come to repentance. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved.
      I also thank God that Little Richard chose to clean that sissy make-up off. Praise Jesus - He can straighten anyone out, no matter how tutti fruitti they might be!

    Hi little Richard! We had the same hairdresser Vivian on Crenshaw Blvd in L.A.
    in the early 80’s we sat and talked for over 2 hours! You are a sweet man and I wish you peace and happiness and I pray your health has stabilized! You rocked it Little Richard! Love you!

    When I was about 17 years old (now 50) I was with my family walking on Hollywood Blvd when a limousine pulled over and the back tinted window half opened and a hand stuck out offering something I could not see. A lot of folks walked towards the limo to get what this rich guy in a limo was giving out so I went too. To my surprise it was Little Richard smiling handing out christian tracts. I knew who he was even then because I like oldies and he stands out.
    This man in a way introduced me to Jesus Christ and although he was famous and rich took the time to give me and others the most precious and priceless gift of all, the message of the Creator of all things offering to give me eternal life. That is what I remember most about Little Richard....I know where he is at this very moment.... Praise God!
    He professed Jesus Christ as his Saviour publicly as seen in this video which is more like a autobiography:

    When I was a boy back in the early 1970's and I first heard Long Tall Sally on the radio in my dads car, I begged him to drive to the record store and buy the song for me. At first he said, ''No''. Then I cried (super loud) till he changed his mind. I still have that 45 today at 56 years old.

    I remember seeing him at a L.A. church back in 94. At this time, he was still in Rock n Roll mode with the clothes but he was very chill and humble.
    I was young and didn’t think it was really him and that the guy was an imposter until one member greeted him with his real name.
    One thing I do remember is he did have a big head.

Could you imagine chuck berry trying to sing If I can dream by elvis.. Maybe check it out unless it's against your religion to listen to a white guy
